On the off-chance that anyone here tried the jailbreak method using your TV:

I was able to root my TV using rootmy.tv really easily and am now trying to connect my PC to the TV using SSH or telnet in order to run a couple commands and send the needed files to trigger the jailbreak. However, I can't for the life of me connect using SSH or telnet - I get a "connection timeout" error everytime, making it impossible to log into root. The IP address and the port I enter are both correct (22 or 23 for the port depending on if SSH or telnet is chosen).

I tried a couple methods to install OpenSSH since in my research it looked like this might be an issue which also didn't work, tried disabling my firewall, adding the program to the exception list in my firewall etc. - nothing seems to work.

Any ideas?

Maybe your ip is coursed you could try using a port forward on your router and then install cloudflared if possible. Might be worth a try. Worked for me in a different situation.
